seriously, i doubt any dx of a child so young. that dx i think is abusive. using myself as an example, and speaking of Munchausen's by proxy........... i was a loner and smarter than my peers as a child... i lived in a fantasy world most of the time. i assigned characters and personalities to numbers. i had an inability to do math. it was a foreign lanquage. all of that prompted the adults to label me, study me, test me. all of that psychological evaluating me from the age of 8 yrs old did a lot of damage to my self esteem. i grew up believing something was wrong... and i still have to battle this belief.
plus it angers me that children are being chemically altered because of these dx's.
